The following are the major differences between SVT-A and SVT-V series wireless vibration & temperature sensors.
- SVT-V series sensors are the only true real-time wireless vibration monitoring sensors with the longest battery life in the industry. They are also the best sellers of industrial wireless vibration sensors with fully automatic data acquisition and acceleration range adjustment ability.
- SVT-A series sensors send out raw acceleration data; while SVT-V series sensors send out calculated result including velocity RMS, acceleration RMS. As a result, SVT-A sensors allow for FFT analysis, filtering, and other advanced vibration analysis, while SVT-V sensors do not have this capability. SVT-V sensors can be used by both technicians without much vibration analysis experiences, or by vibration experts for continuous monitoring.
- When SVT-A series sensors take data continuously, due to the large amount of data transferred, their battery will be drained much faster than SVT-V series sensors. SVT-V series sensors are designed to monitor in real time (taking data continuously in the most energy-efficient way). For critical assets, SVT-V series sensors are essential for immediate response to detect accidents.
- In the same edge-computing gateway, only one SVT-A sensor group can take data at a time and there are up to 6 SVT-A sensors in a group; while all SVT-V sensors in different groups take data in parallel, and there can be up 30 SVT-V sensors for a gateway.
- An SVT-A sensor can only send data to one gateway at a time; while an SVT-V sensor can send data to multiple gateways at the same time
- SVT-A series sensors take data manually, or with timer or remote MQTT control; SVT-V series sensors are fully automatic with minimum effort to use.
- For machines that run without a fixed pattern, for example, press machines in steel plant, SVT-V series sensors are the most effective wireless vibration monitoring solutions
The following are the common properties of SVT-A and SVT-V series wireless vibration & temperature sensors.
- Both sensors measure precision temperature with 0.01 degree resolution
- Both sensors can measure velocity RMS and acceleration RMS
- Both sensors can use the single M6 screw case, or double-screw case
- Both sensors use the same electrical design and hardware, but SVT-A and SVT-V sensors use different firmware
- Both sensors are used widely by IOT software companies, AI companies or vibration analysts for predictive maintenance purpose.
